Google’s new Boulder headquarters recently opened with flourish — and a pizza oven, an arcade games room and a climbing wall.

The company’s Colorado outpost, now at around 800, has many of the perks of its Silicon Valley mothership. Colorful Google bikes? Check. Massage and yoga rooms. Yup. Dog run? Of course. Plus there’s a public bike path that intersects the campus, allowing curious non-Googlers to get a glimpse of the tech life.

Two buildings, at 30th and Pearl streets, make up the first phase of the three-building campus at 30th and Pearl streets, which was first announced in late 2014. Three years later, the company has added 500 employees in Boulder, causing it to lease additional offices for its expanding workforce. The new campus, called Google Pearl Place, is intended to eliminate space constraints as the company continues to grow.

The new campus — Google paid developers $131 million for the land and building last September — eventually will include 330,000 square feet of office space with room for about 1,500 workers.
